[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I disagree with letting the child dictate the guest list. At this age, she should not be allowed to exclude kids. A 5-year-old may not have the capacity for empathy and may choose not to invite because of trivial reasons (talks with a lisp, colors poorly, etc.) When kids are older and develop deeper friendships, they start having smaller parties where the closest friends are invited. Until then, the entire class, or at least the same gender children, should be invited.[/quote]

Bullshit.  I'm the one paying for my kid's party, and there is no reason I have to invite 15+ kids.  My kid is, in fact, closer to some kids than others.  They really do have friendships.  It's really okay to just invite the kids that your kid plays with the most.

OP, it sounds like this girl did NOT have an all-class or all-girls-in-the-class party.  So your daughter wasn't the only one "excluded."  She was one of many children who were not invited.  And you want to retaliate against the girl?  I think, first of all, you need to accept that your daughter isn't going to be invited to everything, and second, you need to ask yourself why you're so invested in this.  [/quote]
